Yeah thats a problem I have. I like some plant based meat/dairy alternatives but can’t justify paying so much. Meat and dairy should be quite a bit more expensive compared to plant based.
A vegan (or low-meat diet, for that matter) does not equate to substituting meat to processed meat alternatives. Other recipes that do without any fake meat exist.
Having tried both, I found it better to do without the meat alternatives and see what tasty delights are possible without them. Replacing meat with meat replacements won’t quite scratch the itch at first because the palette remembers.
Experimenting with just vegetables and plants will lead to a lot more variety than chips and plant burgers. I think that experimentation makes it much more sustainable because you realise just how many flavour combinations are possible when meat isn’t dominating everything.
What’s your favourite meat- and meat-replacement free recipe?
